Our Savior Christ once knelt in prayer


Our Savior Christ once knelt in prayer
with none but three disciples there,
upon a lonely mountain high
beneath a blue expanse of sky--
below them, far as eye could see,
the little hills of Galilee.

There as he prays a radiance bright
transfigures all his form to light;
high robe in dazzling splendor shows
a purer white than sunlit snows,
while on his countenance divine
transcendent glories burn and shine.

So for a moment stands revealed
what human flesh and form concealed;
while Moses and Elijah share
in earth and heaven mingled there,
with him whom prophecy foresaw,
the true fulfiller of the law.

The shadowed summit, wrapped in cloud,
sounds to a voice that echoes loud,
"This is my true beloved Son,
listen to him, my chosen one."
The glory fades; with all its pains
the road to Calvary remains.

Give to us, Lord, the eyes to see
as saw those first disciples three:
a teacher true, a friend indeed,
the risen Savior sinners need,
the Son whose praise eternal rings,
the Lord of lords and King of kings!
